Pekorina, accompanied by Acathea, Amelia, Anna, and Ismene were slowly making their way back to the Squirrel-kin village alongside many other Raccoon-kin people.
"Ervas and Veronica said that the rescued people are all good now! So, let us go and see your family again, Pekorina!" said Amelia innocently.
"My family… I am so glad that they are alive and well… my sister, my mother, my brother… and my father as well… and also all of the people of the village. I am indebted to Ervas and Veronica for what they have done for them… And well, for me as well… Ah, and everyone else, of course, peko!" said Pekorina, changing from melancholy to her usual energetic nature. Her silvery white-furred rabbit ears twitched in expectation.
"Also, the elders did a big ritual to call upon Ratatoskr-sama, so she could bestow upon the former captives with her miraculous light, and heal them of their wounds," said Ismene.
